Trees located along both sides of SR 255 in the area between Vine Road and State Street are in the process of being cut down as part of PennDOT's highway renovation project.

With progress comes sacrifice. This is something many St. Marys residents are experiencing first hand, specifically pertaining to the removal of treasured trees lining the Million Dollar Highway which have been removed as part of the state Route 255 renovation project.
